              Thousands of Electric Lights, Thou-sands
of Special Lanterns and
Great Search Lights Will Il-luminate
the Park. A
Wonderful Scene •
Every preparation is being made to
entertain the largest crowd that ever
assembled in Hershey Park on Inde-pendence
Day.- . Indications are that
Hershey Park will be the most popu-lar
point in Lebanon Valley. Since
Hershey showed its ability to enter-lain
and feed forty tnousand people
on one day last month, without a
single complaint or any disorder,
there is absolute assurance that all
who visit the model town and its en-larged
Park will have attention , com-fort
and satisfaction.
Next Monday there will be excur-sions
by trolley and "by railroad to
Hershey and plenty - of extra cars.
There is abundant room for more
than two thousand automobiles and
motor cycles and for all horse vehic-les.
The town and the Park have
abundant shelter and there are five
cafes and restaurants with moderate
prices. The check system at Hershey
prevents absolutely any overcharge.
Since last year the Park has been
greatly improved. The Convention
Hall, the largest in Southern Penn-sylvania
and one of the largest in the
country, has been added; it will be
open and at night its towers will be
illuminated. The Pane nas the larg-est
free Zoo, in the state, and the ad-ditions
include a splendid lioness and
a herd of beautiful ponies for the
children. Special' cars are now being
run to the summit of Highland Park
where visitors may see the million
gallon reservoirs and gaze upon one
of the finest scenes in America.
There will be dancing morning, af-ternoon
and night, with, special, or-chestras.
The Hershey Band of forty
pieces will give free conceits. The'
concrete pool accommodating 2,000,
the new shoot-the-chutes and the
boating on Spring Creek and lakes
will be open all day. The conserva-tories
will be accessible to the public
:—admission free. There are fine
grounds and courts for all games.
The all-steel aparatus for the children
will be free.
At the Hershey Park Theater will
be high-grade performances by the
Irene Myers Stock Company, with
Charles Chapin pictures between the
acts—the best show in the state with
the admission price only five cents.
. There will be a league game of base
ball between the Hershey and Lebr
anon Clubs on the improved diamond,
and it is expected that five thousand
will see the contest.
Every minute of the day will have
something going on and so ample are
the facilities for all events that there
will be no overcrowding anywhere.
Hershey Park can take care of fifty
thousand people. If you want to see
your friends next Monday you will
find them at Hershey.
Thousands of Lights
The illumination of Hershey Park
next Monday -will be on a scale never
before attempted. It will be in itself
one of the strongest attractions of the
holiday and thousands will come miles
to see it.
From all the high points of the
town will be great streams of il-lumination.
From the" 165 foot tower
of the Hershey Press Building will bo
a searchlight that will send its beams
fifteen miles or more. If the inter-vening
hills do not interfere this light
will bo visible from both Harrisburg
and Lebanon. People in the moun-tains
on both sides of the valley will
probably bo wondering what it is.
From the four towers of the now
Horshoy Convention Hall there will
bo great floods of light from 150
electric lights.
Above the Band Shell will bo the
now American Flag, made of 210
lights in the three colors, wi th a wav-ing
effect operated by motor. This
flag is the latest built and it arrived
in Horshoy this week. Electrician
Hull and his force are buH .y putting
it up. It will bo shown for the first
time next Monday night. It is boun-tiful.
The Band Shell proper will have
more than 100 lights in rod , white and
blue.
The restaurant and booths will hnvo
2R0 lights In various colors and hava
several ingenious schemes liavo boon
worked out by Mr. Hull. All those
will bo enhanced by festoons of lights
and standard lights over and along
tho paths—there will bo more than a
thousand* of thoin , and then there will
also bo thousands of JupmioHo lanterns
placed so as to add to tho. artistic
loveliness of the Park. Tho big foun-tain
will 1m Illuminated all evening
with clocti'li! lights showing changing
colors,
It will bo » wonderful night spec-tacle.
Half Hour Trolley Service
, On Monday half-hour service on
all tho Iloi'slioy Transit Company
linos will ho the rule. This moans
half-hour ears both to Palmyra and
Lebanon, 'Manager Kroidor has ar-fl
ranged for a busy day and if the
weather is favorable the traffic will
run into tens of thousands.
The Weather Bureau makes the fol-lowing
forecast for Monday: "Fair
weather for the Fourth of July holi-day
next Monday for every section
of the country, except Oregon."
Hershey's Biggest Fourth
Will be Gay and Brilliant
More Changes in the School
Assistant Principal Everett and Miss
Mabel Brown Resign '
The faculty of the M. S. Hershey
Consolidated School of . Derry Town-ship
is undergoing changes. The
vacancy in the Third Grade has been
filled by the election of Miss Anna
Lloyd, of Mechanicsburg, a graduate
of living College, whose recommenda-tions
are among the strongest that
have been received by the Board.
It was expected that? H. S. Everett,
the assistant principal, would return.
He had been reelected and his con-tract
for next year was signed, but he
has been - elected to the mathematical
faculty of Bucknell University and
the Derry Board felt that it could not
oppose his taking this - new place.
The position is an honor to Mr.
Everett and he has been cordially
congratulated by his Hershey friends.
There are many applicants for the
position left vacant by his withdrawal.
The Board is busy trying to find the
best man possible.
Miss Mabel Brown, who made such
a good record in art work last year,
was reelected and her return was
counted as certain, but her family
have moved to the western part of the
state and for this reason she has giv-en
up her place in .the Hershey school.
Her departure is much regretted.
Applications for this vacancy are be-ing
received.
New Calf Barn a Beauty
One of the Most Interesting Attrac-tions
of the Hershey Farms
' . f
There is no place in Lebanon "Val-ley
more interesting than the new
Calf Barn on the road between Union
Deposit and Sand Beach. It is Her-shey
Farm Number Three, comprising
about 250 acres of splendid land and
it commands a fine view of Highland
Park and the surrounding country.
The barn is of enormous size and is
an up-to-date building, strictly mod-ern
in all its appointments. At the
time of the visit of the Press repres-sehtative
there were over 50 calves
in their places, but the air . was as
fresh and sweet as the out of doors.
From every side of the building ample
ventilators run to the large metal
towers at the top of the roof. Much
concrete is used and the new fixings
are handsome. Each calf has its
own crib, its own bucket, its own ra-tions
and its- regular hours. It re-ceives
better attention and more nour-ishing
food than most babies, and it
is kept far cleaner than the average
baby. The result is that the calves
are called all sorts of pet names and
the women visitors rave over them.
A lady from Michigan last month fell
in love with one of them and when
she got home wrote and sent special
messages. A young lady on our in-spection
trip declared Number 46 was
too lovely for anything and wanted
to take it away with her. The al-most
human appeal of these little
beauties is wonderful.
All surroundings of tho new barn
are fine. The concrete manure pit is
so admirabl y managed that is loses
any unpleasantness. Tho now corn
barn with its concrete floor and its
modern ventilation is vary attractive;
it Is 22 by 00 feet and it will hold
4,000 bushels. Many tons of hay
were being stored in tho groat loft
nnd tho use of the now fork was being
tested succosfully. There is a big
yield of hay this year.
Tho farm residences are modern ,
with all tho conveniences. C. II.
Stonor is the farmer and Peter Olot-folter
is the dairyman. , On all sides
are bods of flowers and tho whole pic-turn
is delightful. Manager Frank B.
Suavely is very proud of the now
farm , and visitors loavo many com-pliments.
Violent Storm Cut a Swath
Through Hershe y and Vicinity
Lightning Struck Three Times in the
Town and Hundreds of Acres of ,
Corn on Surrounding Farms
were Damaged. Came
. Suddenly. Sunshine
Last Saturday was one of the most
remarkable days in Hershey's history.
It began beautifully and the morning
was as fine and fair as. one would
care to see. The temperature was
just right and altogether it was Leb-anon
Valley weather at its best.
Everybody welcomed the noon hour
as the beginning of a perfect half-holiday
and' the young folks began to
get ready for the various games and
excursions.
Then in a half hour came a change.
Cloud, regiments commenced to skirm-ish
and the skies grew wonderfully
interesting. Presently the shirmish-ers
drew fire—vagrant lightning
flashes : with , distant rumblings of
thunder. Then suddenly there was a
crash and the battle was on. All the
heavy artillery came into play. First
the hurricane rolled from the north-west
and in a half hour it was com-ing
from the south ; it . shifted to
most of the points of the compas and
as it moved around it turned from
warm rain to slanting bombardments
of hailstones that pelted windows,
stripped trees and made mounds of
ice on the ground. There was almost
every kind of storm and the tempera-ture
varied twenty degrees in as many
minutes. ;
The lightning was wondrously vivid
and beautiful and its flashes were un-comfortably
close. Two struck the
roof of President Murrie's residence
in East Hershey and knocked off
a chimney; several slates of the roof
were scattered, but no one in the
house was injured. A tree on the
Mansion grounds, was struck. A
house on Caracas Avenue was struck.
Streams were - swollen and there
was much damage to paths. The
downpour of rain was like .that of a
cloudburst. One remarkable thing
about the storm was its size. It was
less than three-quarters of a mile
wide. It slanted from the northwest
to the southeast and spent itself with-in
a few miles. While Hershey was
in its fury neither Hummelstown nor
Palmyra knew anything about it.
Then it went even more suddenly than
it came and the closing hours of Sat-urday
afternoon were among the most
beautiful and most placid that Her-shey
has ever known. Even the base-ball
team got out and played a game
that had been given up as impossible.
The wind and hail were very dis-astrous
to crops, especially corn. On
four of the Hershey farms the dam-age
was great, particularly numbers
12, 15 and 20. These farms had the
finest corn fields ever seen in this
section. The storm's path of three-fourths
of a mile was distinctly mark-ed.
Beyond its line , the corn today is
more beautiful than ever, but in the
storm path the marks of the wind and
hail are all over the scene. The corn
is cut and bedraggled. It is not a
total loss, for most of it will survive,
but the contrast with the undamaged
field is sharp. About 225 acres on
the four farms were affected.
Death of Kathr yn Yingst
Miss Kathryn Yingst died on Sat-urday
evening at tho home of her
mother Mrs. Mary Yingst in Derry
Church after an illness of several
weeks, She was aged 80 years.
Miss Yingst had been a resident of
Derry for a number of years during
which time she had boon employed
for over ton years at tho general
store. She made a wide circle of friends
throughout Dauphin and Lebanon
counties. Sho was a devoted member
of tho United Brethren and was a
member of tho Faithful Workers '
Bible Class.
Sho is survived by liar mother Mrs.
Mary Yingst, with whom sho lived
and one sister Mrs. Lima Gross of
Highspiro.
Tho funeral services wore hold on
Wednesday morning at 1) o'clock from
tho house with.Rev. N. L. Linobaugh
assisted by Rov. George S. Rent/,,
officiating. The body was taken to
Middlotown for interment whoro short
services woro hold at tho grave.

Among the treasures which John
E. Snyder, Esq., has recently added to
his library are two valuable volumes
containing "Travels in the Confedera-tion
1783-1784," by Johann David
Schoepf, translated and edited by Al-fred
J. Morrison. Dr. Schoepf Was
one of the ablest and best educated
Germans of his day and he devoted
a large part of his life to travel. His
visit to America, in which this part
of the country is described, was when
he was 32 years old. He traveled
from New York through New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio and the
South to the West Indies and every-where
he was a close observer, of
what he saw.
In this section he found the stump-grubber.
"A stump-grubber receives
20-24 shillings Pensylv. Current and
victuals for every acre of lanb> he
clears; clearing up an acre in 3-4
days." Here he ran into the 17 year
locusts, although at that time no one
knew what they were. They made
"an unspeakable uproar in the near-by
garden, woods, bush." He says :
"The road to Hummelstown was most-ly
level ; through nothing but woods,
and we saw few houses." ' Of Hum-melstown
he wrote, this being in the
summer of 1783: ' ¦ ~
Hummelstown-—a place of perhaps
50 houses, built along the road, and
only 20 years begun. The first land-lord,
Hummel, a German, has been
dead some years. " The town lots are
60 ft. by 80 and pay 15 shillings year-ly.
Pensylv. Current.—A mile from the
place, behind Valentin Hummel's
house, there is .a cavern which reaches
quite through a limestone hill. The
cavern is 4-500 ft. long, and from 12
to 30 . ft. high. The larger entrance
curves considerably to the southwest,
towards the Swatara; the smaller
opening gives to the northwest. The
rock is the grey, scaly limestone,
which is the same as far as Nazareth.
Large pieces of rock lie fallen in the
cave, which has nothing remarkable
to show beyond many variously shap-ed
stalactites. Bats live there. Petri-factions
are looked for in vain, as
throughout this limestone tract.
Without doubt there are similar caves
in this and other regions where the
rock is stratified; far above this cave
may be seen sunken spots due to the
rock giving beneath ; sinks like these
appear frequently where no caves are
known to exist below. Valentin
Hummel, who took us to the place,
was of the opinion that the land of
this region is too good for dunging
because it. still brings good hemp; in-deed
the hemp stood hereabouts six
to eight feet high, but is raised only
for domestic use. Such over-confi-dent
opinions regarding the inex-haustible
goodness of hi§ sdli gradu-ally
puts the farmer's industry to
sleep, and when, finally, betterment is
necessary many of them had rather
move on to take up fresh land than
be at the trouble of improving the old.
A few miles from Hummelstown
flows the Susquehanna. Here at
Harris's Ferry it is three quarters of
a milo wide, but in the summer
months so shallow that only canoes
can cross; horses and wagons ford
over. In the middle are few small
islands, called Harris 's and also
Turkey Islands. These, with the
steep limestone banks on tho farther
side, the mountains running left and
right, and tho fine breadth of the
stream make all together a beauti-ful
landscape. A shallow ford being
at this place, it comes about that most
travellers, particularly tho Virginia
cattle-doalors (and others farther on),
bringing up their herds , choose this
ford while tho water is low, so as to
avoid the expense of tho ferries
above and bolow, whore the river re-mains
deep oven in summer.
On tho farther bank an extraordi-nary
'stag-horn ' sumac (Rhus typhi-num)
oxcitod our astonishment; its
trunk was over 12 ft. high and near
a foot in diameter, In tho more
northern parts thoy grow smaller and
bushier. There is a spring of tho
finest water near tho edge of tho riv-er;
it Is thought remarkable that tills
spring is governed by tho riso and
fall of tho river , and stands at a con-stant
lovol above tho surface of tho
river-water; there is nothing wonder-ful
in this when it Is considered that
tho spring and tho river communi-cate
through a bent pipe as it wore,
Tills side tho Bimquohannah the
Conodogwynot Crook flows in through
a beautiful and deep valley,
At White 's Tavern , seven mlloti
from tho river by tho road , wo mot
a herd' of black cattlo which had
come about 500 miles from the
frontiers of North Carolina , and was
destined for Philadelphia, Tlio hand-lers
do not always find their account
in this long-dlstanco traffic. Short-ly
before, a herd had boon driven by
this place which could bo sold at
Philadelphia for only 0 Spanish dol-lars
the head, 3-4. years old and
weighing some 500 pounds. Not only
do the cattle in so long a journey, be-come
thinner and worse-looking,, but
the Pensylvania farmer squints at
the business because he himself
raises enough cattle to overstock the
market. But the people from the
back parts of Carolina and Virginia,
having no large populous towns near
them, must make this long and tedi-ous
journey if they are to get any
use of . their numerous cattle. But
situated as they are they themselves
gain next' to nothing. '
Hummelstown 132 Years Ago
Visited by Famous Traveller
Increasin g Their Success
Members of Stock Company do Better
Work Than Ever.
It has been a week of delighted au-diences
at the Hershey Park Theater.
For the second half of last week the
farce. "The Opera Singer," was all
that had been promised! The large
crowds shook with laughter. The at-tendance
grew regularly and Satur-day
night had one of the biggest au-diences
of the year. "All the members
of the company did excellent work.
And . superior pictures between acts
increased, the merits of the show.
Monday night "Lena Rivers" was
presented and a fine audience gave it
the compliment of four curtain calls
and general applause. Miss Myers
added to her popularity. Mr. La
Salle was a handsome arid compelling
hero. Mr. DuFrayne was excellent.
Mr. Burnison was a bright particular
star in a sprightly juvenile part; he
was effervescent and wholly success-ful.
Walter Boss did two character
parts with real art. Mr. Nelso was
a forceful heavy;' man. Miss Taylor
did the best work of her engagement.
She looked and acted better than
well. Miss Miller as Granny Nichols
was fine and so was Miss McMaster
as Mrs. Graham. In fact there was
not a weak point in the cast.
Tonight there will be change of bill.
The new plays are still better than
those that have been given and it is
expected that crowds will attend
them. The^ casts are in the adver-tisement
on the last page of this is-sue
of the Press. The Stock Com-pany
has made good and its perform-ances
can be recommended without
reservation.
The moving pictures between the
acts are better than ever and Monday
night Charles Chapin will be seen.

Decorations Were Beautiful. Those
Who Took Part Were Very Suc-cessful
and There Were Ex-
. cellert Addresses by the
Church Officers
The Sunday School of the Derry
Presbyteria.li Church observed ChilT
dren's Day last Sunday morning. The
glory of the June sun gave an un-usually
fine setting for the program
which was entitled, "The Sunlit Way."
For those who- came from the Her-shey
side of the town especially, the
walk across the lawns with the beau-tiful
visions of flowers and shrubbery
and stately trees on all sides was a
preparation, for the worship of the
Father of lights who is trie Giver of
all these good and.perfect gifts. The
decorations of the church seemed the
crown of beauty for the occasion; a
profusion of roses from the large
rose-garden of Mr. John Cope, one
of the oldest members of the school
in point of . service, formed the chief
note of the decorative scheme, which
was artistically worked out by the
Flower Committee composed of Mrs.
Gundersdorf , Miss Reba Kerr, Mrs.
Ulrich Weltrher, assisted by Mrs.
Conrad and Mrs. Hull.
From the melodious opening chorus,
"Praise Ye the Lord" to the joyous
lilt of the closing song, "He Leads
His Children Upward," tie program
was .one gracious, tuneful expression
of gratitude for the goodness of God,
especially as that goodness is shown
to children. Besides the several
choruses sung by the wlole school,
the program was as follows : Invoca-tion,
by the Pastor; "Address of Wel-come,"
Charles Black; . "Words of
Welcome," Madeline Dubbs; "We Are
Glad Today," Lydia "WeHmer; Song
by the Primary Department; Recita-tion
by Evelyn Buohl; "We Are His
Lambs," Richard Black: "What Can
We Give," Grace Bilotti; Exercise, "A
Bunch of Daisies," Primary Children ;
"The King," Janies McLaury; Solo
and Chorus, "Growing for the King,"
Medeline Dubbs ; "Swinging in the
Sunlight," Katherine "Weltmer; Reci-tation,
Roy Tinney; "They Praise
Him," Ellwood Buohl ; Exercise,
"Flower Fairies;" Recitations by .Rus-sel
Tinney and by Antonietta Bilotti;
"Counting," Victor Tinney; "God's
Little Child," Eva Tinney; Remarks
by the Pastor Rev. Mr. R«ntz and the
Superintendent Mr. Cope. Benedic-tion.
The addresses of the pastor and
superintendent were unusually excel-lent.
Much credit should be given to the
teachers of the Primary Department;
Miss Clara Moyer and Mrs. Dubbs,
for their preparation of the children
for the service; they were assisted by
Mrs. McLaurie, Miss Bessie Allwine
and Miss May Allwine.
The finest expression of the spirit
of the day was in the offering which
goes to tho Board of Sabbath School
Work for the establishment of Sab-bath
schoo<ls in the neglected parts of
the United States. The amount of
the offering, $18.00, was an index of
the approbation of the opportunity
of sharing with others the blessings
of Children 's Day.

Minnie s Experience With Fragments
From Lunch Diiskets
In tho crowds that camo to Hershey
last month were many who carried
their own food and one of their de-lights
was to. food tho fragments to
Minnie , the lioness. The result was
that Minnie accumulated a variety of
things thait represented almost tho
whole ' food category of at largo part
of the United States, including a lot
of choose that would have strained
tho digestion of a i-hinocerous.
, Minnie collapsed in a fit of acute
dyspepsia and a veteri nary export
was quickly summoned by Front/,
Zinnor. Thoy adopted heroic meas-ures
and for two days Mi nnlo wos the
sickest lioness in America, Sho was
so miserable that it pained one to
look at her. For a time Zinnor fear-ed
ho would lose the pii/.o of tho Zoo.
But Minnie 's strength and good
health won and gradually she has re-turned
to normal.
Some oC tho other animals also suf-fered
severely from tho mistaken
kindiioHH of visitors. Kven' tho prairie
dogs did not escape. Tho result is
that slgna have boon put up asking
everyone not to givo .eatables to tho
Inmates of the zoo. Thoy are well
fed and correctly fed by Iho manage-ment
and any other food Is dangerous
to them,
